What is the g force of the space shuttle at reentry?
1.5
What force acts on a space shuttle when it accelerates?
Presumably the most important force on an accelerating space shuttle is the force of the rocket engines (thrusters). Certainly other forces are present, including gravity and air friction.
Objects in the space shuttle do what when they have no force supporting them?
Float. Because there is no force or gravity to support them.
How do they steer the space shuttle?
They use a reaction control system which is a series of jets which spray a tiny amount of gas to turn the shuttle.
The amount of gravitational force that acts on the space shuttle while in orbit is?
almost as much as the shuttle's weight on Earth's surface
What is the g force of the space shuttle at reentry?
1.5
What type of reaction does hydrogenygen in a space shuttle fuel system?
The Space Shuttle Main Engines burn Hydrogen and Oxygen. The byproduct of this reaction is water. The formula would be: 2H2 + O2 = 2H20 + energy

What does it use to help the space shuttle get to space?
A power called thrust and Newton's 3rd law of space which states that there is an opposite reaction. the rocket fuel goes down which pushes the space shuttle up.
How do they steer the space shuttle?
They use a reaction control system which is a series of jets which spray a tiny amount of gas to turn the shuttle.
How does a space shuttle turn in absolute space?
It uses thruster engines. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction
The amount of gravitational force that acts on the space shuttle while in orbit is?
almost as much as the shuttle's weight on Earth's surface
Where in California did the space shuttle Endeavour land?
Edwards Air Force Base
Did a space shuttle land in dyess air force base?
Columbia, 1982
Why boosters are used in space shuttle?
Well they are used because without them the space shuttle would not be able to have enough force to escape the earths gravity when it was being launched.
How does a space shuttle lift off the ground so easily?
it dosent, its very hard to get a space shuttle off the ground it uses thaousands of pounds of force to lift it.
